When we tend to judge ourselves in the most generous terms
possible, we are engaged in which of the following options?
a. Self-fulfilling prophecy.
b. Egocentric amplification.
c. Egocentric bias.
d. Self-serving bias.
Homework Answers
The answer is option d: self serving bias. In order to maintain an enhanced self esteem, we rely on self serving bias. This is the most generous manner in which one can judge himself/herself. In this a person relates to their own abilities when they experience something successful and blame on external factors when they face any kind of failure.
For example, when person A got high marks in his exam he judged and related the success to his hard work. When the same person scored poor in the same subject next time, he said that he did not get enough time to complete or the person beside him was bothering him.
